Imagine...I just received FSB's email. How nice of them Tmust have been the number of mails sent though....that truncated long list of emails scared me o. Anyway, in the middle of all the drama taking place here, I'm here to wish us well in our respective interviews

isedehi:

If it's no use, they'll simply ignore it, not disqualify the person. No embarrassment there. Or is someone worried?

With the kind of course I want to study, I should have a number of unpublished manuscripts, which I do. If your course doesn't require it, why then are you hating on one that does?

Who says links are of no use? There was a provision for links, except you didn't even bother with it cos you have no publications. P. S Dissertations were advice to be included, always read the fine print!

Ahan...bro/sis, you can vex o. He was just trying to explain his own understanding of the matter. I understand you though. I once saw my lecturer's CV and there he listed accepted (yet unpublished) manuscripts among his publications. So, I believe they could count here too since the assessors too would be academics. And being academics, I don't want to believe twill earn anyone embarrassment to present such. Pardon my saying it again, u can vex gan o

lantessy:

Don't mind him jawe. You would be allowed, but the probability that you will be nominated is approximately zero, if you do not have discharge certificate

The more diplomatic way of saying it abi

If your BSc thesis was published, then its most likely in a journal. Which is quite short. I guess thats what you should take as evidence instead of printing out your whole project of like 50pages or more.

isedehi:


Thanks. Was thinking so too. If your research projects are unpublished manuscripts and accepted and even recommended, why not any other unpublished manuscripts. I included a Web link to Dropbox. If not that Nigeria is stuck in the olden days practice of using hardcopies, why not? Or what do you think? Do I make 4 copies of my bachelor's degree project too? Pls I need an answer. Thanks

Can one be nominated with incomplete referees' recommendations? I.e 1 out of 3... I don't want to waste transport fare. Is it possible to get medical report on the same day one applies for it?

So I met some fellow commonwealth scholarship applicants at LUTH today, where we all went to get that annoying certificate of fitness, an it was fun

I wish you guys all the best

As for CSC, they can accept your references anytime (I confirmed from them). Na Nigeria FSB get crazy policy jare. U can also get med cert same day. Wise up!

Pls guys kindly clear me on this. Can some1 that is yet to secure admission in a UK Uni attend the interview?

kaka22:

Hmmm...long thing!
It depends on whether you're going through the normal process or through the back door.
We realised that if we were to go through the normal process, the tests that are needed to be conducted towards issuance of the certificate will take some days, so we just discussed with some guys there, & they helped us with the certificate without any real tests. For confidentiality reasons, I can't say any more here.

For those with publications, I think printing the first abstract page of the publication will even be proof enough. That's where much of the info they need is

Lol...you want hand your phone number to telemarketers abi?
Goodluck with that.
Me, I no dey do!
This forum is okay for me, since it ensures (well, almost ensures) anonymity.

Please somebody help; does Federal Medical Center qualify as a national hospital? Thanks

Please send same for me @ timseabasitom@yahoo.com. God bless !!!

GrammarNazi:


Done!
Check your email.

House please,
Can I use my offer letter (PhD) in lieu of supporting statement as my proposed supervisor has not responded. The offer letter is enough to provide evidence of supervisor support as his name is clearly on it.

Let me know your opened opinion.

Ideally, you should be able to, if your offer of admission is from the same school you chose in the commonwealth scholarship application; but I don't know how the FSB operates.

For FSB is very possible, all u have to do is explain y ur supervisor has not sent supporting doc. A well package lie or deeper life truth might work. But again CSC suggest that without supporting statement, ur app will not b considered. So pls use wisdom and am not hating oh like one fellow said here. Lol
